CASHEW ROASTED AND SALTED 150GR
Cashews, also known as caju nuts, are nuts native to Brazil, but widespread in many tropical regions of the world. They are the fruit of the cashew tree (Anacardium Occidentale) and belong to the Anacardiaceae family. Cashews are widely enjoyed for their unique flavor and culinary versatility.
Cashews grow on medium-sized trees that can reach a height of about 10-12 meters. The fruit itself has an oval or heart shape with a leathery outer skin and a layer of juice separating it from the seed.
Health Benefits:
Cashews are a good source of protein, healthy fats, vitamins (B1, B5 and B6), minerals (magnesium, copper, zinc and phosphorus) and antioxidants. Consuming cashews can help improve heart health, regulate blood sugar levels, support the immune system, and contribute to healthy skin and bones.
Note of caution:
It should be kept in mind that some people may be allergic to cashews, so it is important to exercise caution if you suspect an allergic reaction. Additionally, it's best to avoid consuming unroasted cashews, as the outer skin contains an irritant called urushiol, which can cause skin or respiratory irritation.
